Drip Irrigation Management

Thursday, May 16, 2024 · 5–7 pm

331 Piedmont Drive, Yanceyville, NC


Drip irrigation has the potential to save water and nutrients by allowing water to drip slowly to the roots of plants, either from above the soil surface or buried below. Meeting participants will learn how to identify what is necessary for crop irrigation, which will help in the design and installation of the system. The participants will learn how to operate a drip system and receive tips for keeping that system running smoothly and efficiently.
